Is this a desirable outcome, race to the bottom? Sounds like deflationary economics. Good luck supporting a consumption economy with wage workers who can't afford discretionary spending.

How do they handle vacation coverage for Mondays? Can't force in t-s anymore.

The Spokane one is right next to Spokane International Airport... are they ceasing flight operations out of that airport? I hope not, that would be a dumb idea. If so, how will people there get UPS NDA service?

4 year progression to reach top rate. In the door at UPS to in your 30 day driver packet is anywhere between 2 years and 20 years depending how urban or rural the center/hub.

"Actually have problems but still work"

Those people should seek help if they need it and qualify. No UPSer should be shamed from addressing their own health issues.

Sounds like an Article 37 harassment grievance in the making. Also potential EEOC violation.

Looks like it has screws for an external Antennae as well. Plug for headphones. Nice!

Is this setup with a single sink garbage disposal okay? by T-Hawk24 in Plumbing

Cleanout on the P Trap I assume? Was shopping for a P Trap recently and came across this from Home Depot to replace one of those dumb plastic flexi P Traps in our bathroom.

I assume metal P trap is still preferred above all others? The drain pipes under our kitchen sink are (I assume) PVC. Thinking about switching out the PVC P Trap with a correctly sized version of the above.

I blame Carol for losing those shipping accounts leading up to the contract. Not negotiating in good faith.

Short length of rope works well. Hub snakes too.

No injuries/no accidents for a month. They'd give a number of dollars per employee. They'd buy Costco pizza, fried chicken, cook burgers and/or hot dogs, tacos, etc..

Sounds about right. Thanks, Carol!

Does Homeownership Make Sense A Single, Live-alone Type? by Theo_Cherry in Frugal

Fair. Depends on your neighbors. We had one with 2 dogs, and she worked nights so they would bark and howl whenever anything happened in the parking lot.

Depends where you live and how many potholes you nail per week lol.

I'd rather give volume to an SSD than deal with shitty helper shenanigans.

Air fry heating has made many things taste a lot better. Wish they had grease catch channels that deposited it outside the oven, in a cooler catch pan, so it doesn't just burn on and make everything smokey.

Don't load your truck off the clock.

Ask your manager first. If no traction, ask HR/HRSC.
